⇒ 2x – x < 5 + 2
⇒ x < 7 … (1)
3(x + 2) > 2 – x
⇒ 3x + 6 > 2 – x
⇒ 3x + x > 2 – 6

Question 9. Solve the following inequalities and represent the solution graphically on number line:
3x – 7 > 2(x – 6), 6 – x > 11 – 2x
Solution :
3x – 7 > 2(x – 6)
⇒ 3x – 7 > 2x – 12
⇒ 3x – 2x > – 12 + 7
⇒ x > –5 … (1)
6 – x > 11 – 2x
⇒ –x + 2x > 11 – 6

⇒ 4x – 44 ≤ 0
⇒ 4x ≤ 44
⇒ x ≤ 11 … (1)
2x + 19 ≤ 6x + 47
⇒ 19 – 47 ≤ 6x – 2x
⇒ –28 ≤ 4x
⇒ –7 ≤ x … (2)

Question
11. A solution is to be kept between 68°F and 77°F. What is the range of temperature in degree Celsius (C) if the Celsius / Fahrenheit (F) convension formula is given by
?
Solution :
Given 68°F and 77°F.
Question 12. A solution of 8% boric acid is to be diluted by adding a 2% boric acid solution to it. The resulting mixture is to be more than 4% but less than 6% boric acid. If we have 640 litres of the 8% solution, how many litres of the 2% solution will have to be added?
Solution :
Let x litres of 2% boric acid solution is required to be added.
Then, total mixture = (x + 640) litres
This resulting mixture is to be more than 4% but less than 6% boric acid.
∴2%x + 8% of 640 > 4% of (x + 640)
And, 2% x + 8% of 640 < 6% of (x + 640)
2%x + 8% of 640 > 4% of (x + 640)
⇒ 2x + 5120 > 4x + 2560
⇒ 5120 – 2560 > 4x – 2x
⇒ 5120 – 2560 > 2x
⇒ 2560 > 2x
⇒ 1280 > x
2% x + 8% of 640 < 6% of (x + 640)
⇒ 2x + 5120 < 6x + 3840
⇒ 5120 – 3840 < 6x – 2x
⇒ 1280 < 4x
⇒ 320 < x
∴320 < x < 1280
Thus, the number of litres of 2% of boric acid solution that is to be added will have to be more than 320 litres but less than 1280 litres.
Question 13. How many liters of water will have to be added to 1125 liters of the 45% solution of acid so that the resulting mixture will contain more than 25% but less than 30% acid content?
Solution :
Allow for the addition of x litres of water. The entire mixture is then calculated = (x + 1125) litres It is clear that the amount of acid in the final mixture is excessive. 45% of 1125 litres. The resulting mixture will have a higher concentration of 25% but less than 30% acid content.
Therefore, minimum 562.5 liters and maximum 900 liters of water need to be added.
